Well today we go to sign the paperwork for my new place. Admittedly, its just a patch of ground, with a ratty mobile home on it, but if all goes well I'll be happy with it.

Its 5 acres. I will have it paid for in full in just 10 years. Not to shabby.

It already has a well and sewage. This week we will get electricity and a phone.

Sadly, I don't think that broadband will be an option out there, at least not immediately. I also refuse to go back to dial-up so until I can either afford satellite or DSL arrives, I will be in an indefinite hiatus from the internet.

All in all though, I will be happy because I will finally be getting my own place again.

So, sometime between now and June 1st (assuming no glitches) I will be departing.

I will try to post some pictures of the property. It will be kinda nice to have a WIP rendition of how the place progresses. Even if I don't have the net, I can get access through the library and through my work.

I'm sure your lack of internet won't even cross your mind for at least six hours Seriously though, you're probably gonna be plenty busy fixing the place up for the first couple weeks. Have fun and good luck and all that.

well, if my math is correct, and yer truly the safe driver you SAY you are, then yer only about 5 hours from me ya old sob.... " SRC="images/smiles/heee.gif">

..and by the way, congratulations on the land, the trailer, and conquering the struggle bro.... " SRC="images/smiles/icon_wink.gif"> liked the pictures; already spotted a good place for the house and the barn.... " SRC="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif">

Indian country hmmm... I wonder if you can send smoke signals over the net. May be that will work? Nah....probably not, that looks pretty secluded.

I would guess you might have a little problem getting service, depending how far from a town you are, the comm services out there are somewhat backwater from my experience depending on what part of the state.

Good luck with new place, looks like a nice piece of property. I always wanted one like that so I could run around naked and chase the old lady...LOL.

My grandkids might leave me alone for a little while too with that much room to raom around.
